Caller

Hi, I need banners for a trade show next week. Can you help?
๐Ÿค–
Absolutely! We do rush trade show printing all the time. What size banners are you looking for, and how many do you need?

Caller

Two 8x4 foot vinyl banners with grommets.
๐Ÿค–
Perfect. When is your trade show, and when do you need them by?

Caller

The show is Thursday. I'd need them by Wednesday at the latest.
๐Ÿค–
That's doable with our rush service. Do you have print-ready artwork, or will you need design work as well?

Caller

We have the files ready in PDF.
๐Ÿค–
Great. Two 8x4 vinyl banners with grommets, rush turnaround. That runs approximately $180โ€“$220 CAD depending on material weight. Would you like to place the order or speak with one of our team members?

Caller

I'd like to confirm and place it. What do I do?
๐Ÿค–
I'll flag this as a rush order and have someone contact you within the hour to confirm details and take payment. Can I get your name and best number?
